Hi.
The combination of diarrhea, mucus in stool , loss of appetite and pain in abdomen is first indicative of intestinal infection.
Take a course of an antibiotic, metronidazole probiotics, symptomatic and supportive treatment.
If no complete relief, go for further management of ct scan of abdomen, Colonoscopy and upper GI endoscopy with tests of blood urine and stool.
The reports will guide for further management.
